More than 40 events across the world in the OFF//SEASON
The official VALORANT esports season comes to an end with VCT Champs later this month. As the world’s best VALORANT teams compete in Los Angeles, the bigger question for many fans is what’s next. Riot Games has just provided the answer with an extensive list of VALORANT OFF//SEASON events for 2023.
The VALORANT OFF//SEASON events start right after VCT Champions 2023 and continue right until January 2024. For several teams, the OFF//SEASON is the perfect time to adjust their rosters and finalize their esports plans for the next season. There will be more than 40 events across various continents across the world.
Each region has nearly ten events of various forms and sizes. While some events take place on LAN, there are also a few that take place online. From India to Japan, across EMEA and North America, VALORANT OFF//SEASON events are there to keep fans engaged even as the official VCT season takes a break.
